Sorry, But if You Play Games...

If you play the word games here on Gather, sorry, but I will probably disconnect from you.  It's not in protest of you doing whatever you want to do on Gather.  My feed very quickly fills up with game players, blocking me from finding articles to read.  Play on, and I'll catch you as I can.

Uh-oh! I occasionally go in to create a ruckus. Am I on the chopping block?

I've done the same thing Vicky.

St. Joy - I don't think Vicky's worried about you doing what you've been doing and me doing the creamed corn thingie.

Vicky I love you in that hat

For a list of all intelligent, thought provoking games on Gather, go HERE.

All games insulting politicians are fine and dandy.
Once in a blue moon I'll follow a sarcastic connection/friend in just to crack myself a smile. Once in a blue moon, that is.

Melinda — The link above works as intended...I was trying to be humorous.

Vicky — I know where you're coming from...although some games I enjoy participating in from time to time.

Actually, the intelligent games are here.

You're a brave woman, Vicky.
Vicky Duggins Jan 22, 2009, 2:17pm EST
Sandy, I'm not brave, just cranky and hormonal.
Vicky Duggins Jan 22, 2009, 2:18pm EST
Roy, yes it is. No more games for you, kiddo.

Ummm. 'M'?? :o)

You could never get me to disconnect from you. Don't make me come out there!
That's why I don't connect with gamers to begin with. It makes me too cranky to have to go to the trouble of disconnecting from them.

Last night, I'm sure I went through your feed with many one - two word comments. Sorry about that. I rarely play any games and if so it's only for a couple comments.
Doyle ( IS SOOO 7 for 7 soon... ) C. Jan 22, 2009, 4:23pm EST
This was wonderful Vicks...I really enjoyed it and all the comments. Looks like it's all been said and done too. Well done!

So now can we now list things which may possibly go wrong while hiking through the Sierra Nevadas in early March with a love-sick Llama from Peru and a Boy Scout with an anger management problem?

I'd be happy to start with...Grizzly Bear. (You know. We just need a 'Yes' from you.)


...waiting.



....still waiting.


Heh heh heh.

Love your new icon. Not a game player.
Games point to Gather points gathering where points gathered are the game pointing to the gift shop, which is pointless when gamely legless in the horizontal position in the Perth Zoo sipping banana smoothies, making all other games pointedly pointless...in a game sort of way.

Here, Vicky, have a banana smoothie as you gamely and pointedly tell me why snow sucks.

I hear ya...and I understand.
no issues from me on that. I actually put gamers in their own category.

Oh no! I was about to publish that "Things you can shove down people's throats" game I thought of of Marylin's article.
Marianne R. Jan 23, 2009, 6:36am EST
I leave one post on a few here and there. Comment feeds and content feeds are sepeate btw.
Mari H. Jan 23, 2009, 12:26pm EST
I no longer play games, however, I do miss Marco's!
Vicky Duggins Jan 23, 2009, 1:10pm EST
There's occasionally a really good game here. One recent one was something like, "say something good about George W. Bush, even if you have to make it up." But, that sort of game doesn't inspire players to answer 44 times.
Mugg Muggles, "The Man With the Jive" Jan 23, 2009, 11:16pm EST
Well , Vicky, I'll just have to take my chances then. I have a "funny names" word contest a brewin'.
Phyllis R. Jan 26, 2009, 12:51pm EST
Very rarely do I play games, really probably been months and months!! Oh yeah, I did at one time that was before I found the 'intelligent' stuff on gather!!! Playing games causes me to think.....that is one reason I retired,--- I got tired of thinking!! LOL

A great idea Vicky but I do like the 'say something good about George W. Bush, even if you have to make it up."!!! Oh, --- who is George W. Bush?!?!?!?!?
